Dave Jones shortlisted for December Championship Manager of the Month

DAVE JONES is on the shortlist of 4 for December's Championship Manager of the Month ... but City fans will be hoping he doesn't win it!!

DJ was October's Manager of the Month after City went unbeaten and collected 11 points out of 15 but, as often seems to be the way, the hex struck as November saw City lose 3 of only 4 Championship games so far this season and collect just 5 points out of 18. So why would we want that award again?

December saw City turn it around again by going unbeaten with 4 wins and 2 draws (14 points out of 18), a record only bettered by Steve Copppell's Reading who had 5 wins and 2 draws.

Hopefully, that should be enough to see Coppell win it when the announcement is made Thursday lunchtime. I'm sure City fans will be delighted if he does.


For the record, the shortlist compromises;
DAVE JONES- CARDIFF CITY
Steve Coppell - Reading
Neil Warnock - Crystal Palace
Mick McCarthy - Wolves

It does seem that the Manager of the Month curse has some substance!

Top site by the way. If you could spare a minute of two to email me, that would be great.

Thanks
